There have been many pictures made over the course of the centuries with the château’s surroundings, the village and the neighbouring countryside as their subjects, and bearing witness to the ways the area has developed. Armed with a bunch of old postcards and a map, pupils mark out such changes, basing their conclusions on period clothing and landscape features.

Repérages Chronologie Objective

Getting one’s bearings in time and space.

Programme

  • Pupils must match a series of old postcards and photographs with a map of the château’s surroundings, and pinpoint the economic activities or historical events to which the pictures bear witness.
  • In a team activity on the château’s terraces, they observe the various points of view to be had of the village.
